**SPECIAL SPACE WEEK PUBLIC LECTURE - hybrid in-person/online!!**

Thursday May 5, 7 - 8 PM

Announcing our first hybrid Public Lecture of the year as part of McGill's Bicentennial Space Week! Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be an astrophysics researcher? During this panel we’ll chat with three current MSI graduate students to learn about their experiences in astrophysics. This event will be hybrid in-person and streamed online. If you would like to attend in person, we ask that you register in advance (in-person attendance limit ~150 people). The panel will be held at Leacock Building Room 132 (855 Sherbrooke St W).

**PLEASE REGISTER IN ADVANCE FOR IN-PERSON**: https://forms.gle/io65xfDpQyeCDmgX7
